Very entertaining, thanks! The Republicans are the party of ignoramuses; the Democrats of eggheads. Each ignoramus or egghead can can chose whether to ally with Republicans or Democrats but only eggheads can understand why.
Obviously, you have that wrong. There is not only my way; there is also yours.The sheer arrogance to think that yours is the only way, or that only you or those like you can understand and everyone else is ignorant.

I doubt the data exists to confirm you statement in regard to low I.Q. ranks. But I understand the important point which is that people who are both broadly and well educated are a minority of the population and therefore must comprise a minority of both political parties.the democrat party dominates the low IQ ranks... its pure propaganda to position the party as the smart party... phd holders are only a small percentage of the vote.

I have absolutely no reliable basis for my ridiculous assertion that the Democratic party is the party of eggheads. My personal observations led me to such an absurd statement. All of the true intellectuals I have known well, and I have known many well, have all leaned heavily toward liberal politics. I can't think of a single exception right now -- well Edward Teller, perhaps, whom I never new. Although, to my knowledge, very few of the intellectuals I've known were active members of any political party.
Mr. Tao took me far too seriously.
